The world's most prestigious motor car manufacturer, Rolls-Royce '“ owned by German car giant BMW '“ will remain in Britain despite the Brexit vote, chief executive officer Torsten Müller-Ötvös said on Thursday.

In the run-up to the EU referendum, employees of the luxury marque, which proclaims its home as Goodwood in West Sussex, each received a letter from their boss warning of a vote to leave.

Torsten wrote in March that the business benefited from easy movement of 
its employees between the UK and Europe, allowing it to build the skill level of 
its UK workforce, while 
any tariff trade barriers would mean higher costs and higher prices.
